Send us a textEver wondered how cultural shifts impact the way we minister in contemporary society? Join us as we explore this and much more with Dr. Matthew Carey Jordan, the newly appointed Vice President of Academic Affairs at Borromeo Seminary and St. Mary's Seminary and Graduate School of Theology. Dr. Jordan shares his compelling journey from his evangelical background to embracing Catholicism, and discusses his ambitious plans to enhance intellectual formation programs for both clergy and laypeople at the Seminary. Dive into his vision of creating new avenues for Catholics to deepen their faith and understanding in the 21st century, moving beyond traditional degree programs.In this thought-provoking episode, we delve into how being in a now apostolic age can inspire modern evangelism and the crucial role of contextualizing the gospel message for today's audiences. This is developed from the book, From Christendom to Apostolic MIssion. There is an upcoming book study on this which is entitled "The Mission Series and Study." Here's an old podcast that Fr Damian did with Dr Jordan. Church Search goes to St. Agnes-Our Lady of Fatima in Cleveland where they celebrated 60 years of service by our colleague Sister Jane Nesmith. We also touch upon forthcoming events, including a live production of Flannery O'Connor's "Everything that Rises Must Converge" and a stimulating book study on "From Christendom to Apostolic Mission." Packed with insights, this episode is a must-listen for anyone involved in ministry or interested in the dynamic interplay between faith and culture.

Mary Flannery O'Connor (March 25, 1925 – August 3, 1964) was an American novelist, short story writer and essayist. She wrote two novels and 31 short stories, as well as a number of reviews and commentaries. Writing to a friend in the mid-1950s, O'Connor noted that we live in an age in which "the moral sense has been bred out of certain sections of the population, like the wings have been bred off certain chickens to produce more white meat on them....This is a Generation of wingless chickens, which I suppose is what Nietzsche meant when he said God was dead." In such a situation, she felt, subtlety could not work: "you have to make your vision apparent by shock---to the hard of hearing you shout, and for the almost blind you draw large and startling figures." Everything That Rises Must Converge is the main story in a collection of short stories written by Flannery O'Connor during the final decade of her life. The collection was published posthumously in 1965 and contains an introduction by Robert Fitzgerald. The short story that lends its name to the 1965 short story collection was first published in the 1961 issue of New World Writing. The story won O'Connor her second O. Henry Award in 1963.
Flannery O'Connor was one of the greatest Southern writers, and one who truly understood the people and nuances of the South. In our second ever episode, we featured one of her classic short stories, "Everything that Rises Must Converge." Published near the end of her life, it deals with a changing South as seen through the lens of recent college graduate Julian and his old-fashioned mother. This week, we feature the story once again in a return to that early episode.

Marlon & Jake weigh in on the age-old “artist versus art” debate, as they examine good books by problematic dead authors, as well as the bad and sometimes problematic books by great dead authors. From Flannery O'Conner to Roald Dahl, Vladimir Nabokov to the surprisingly challenging Charles Dickens, Marlon & Jake explore the thorny questions surrounding the books worth fighting for and the ones worth fighting over. How exactly do we define terrible books? Is there a statute of limitations on being offensive? Can we enjoy a book at the same time that we recognize its failures? Do people and ideas ever evolve beyond books? And what does it mean to have the freedom to choose what to read? Tune in for a provocative, nuanced conversation that might just make you rethink, revisit, or totally let go when it comes to your own reading of dead authors.Selected works discussedCharlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald DahlGone with the Wind by Margaret MitchellEverything that Rises Must Converge by Flannery O'ConnorHeart of Darkness by Joseph ConradBear and His Daughter by Robert StoneThe Breast by Philip RothI Am Charlotte Simmons by Tom WolfeLolita by Vladimir NabokovPnin by Vladimir NabokovMoby Dick by Herman MelvilleSong of Solomon by Toni MorrisonThe Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark TwainThe Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark TwainSlapstick by Kurt VonnegutWelcome to the Monkey House by Kurt VonnegutSlaughterhouse-Five by Kurt VonnegutThe Mountain Lion by Jean StaffordThe Turner Diaries by William Luther PierceTarzan of the Apes by Edgar Rice BurroughsJohn Carter of Mars by Edgar Rice BurroughsAnd the writing of:Charles DickensKnut HamsunJack LondonHP LovecraftWilliam S.

"It was a moment from childhood storms in the Midwest, from dusky late summers in Upstate New York, from early, early jet-lagged mornings in Paris parks. It was every moment, and the same moment, and this moment too, separate and all at once, past and present and future. And I thought yes, this is enough. This is what this quest is really all about." Artipoeus visits Philip Newcombe's "Mosquito" at Gallery A Plus in Berlin.
Infinite Gestation welcomes special guest Matt Bird for a discussion on Southern Gothic Literature, and more specifically, three short stories by Flannery O'Connor. "Good Country People", "Everything that Rises Must Converge" and "A Good Man is Hard to Find" all exhibit the craft of a master short story writer at work, while further confirming that the author left us far too soon. These stories take a dark look at the post-bellum American South, with all its complexities. Questions emerge regarding the strange nature of evil, institutional racism, and religion's place within one's world view. The presence of O'Connor's influence can be felt in many places, though it can be seen most recently throughout the work of the Coen Brothers (many of their story-telling sensibilities stand firmly in her shadow). With two novels and two collections of short stories, the body of Flannery O'Connor's work can be consumed in a relatively short time. We highly recommend that you do so, and sooner rather than later.

[Re-posted with permission from Jenny Attiyeh’s ThoughtCast] Tom Perrotta, the esteemed author of Little Children, Election, The Abstinence Teacher and the recently published novel The Leftovers (St. Martin’s Press, September 2011) speaks with ThoughtCast about a writer who fascinates, irritates and inspires him: Flannery O’Connor. His relationship with her borders on kinship, and he admires and admonishes her as he would a family member, with whom he shares a bond both genetic and cultural.When asked to choose a specific piece of writing that’s had a significant impact on him, Tom chose O’Connor’s short story “Good Country People,” but then he threw in two others — “Everything that Rises Must Converge” and “Revelation.” As Tom explains, these three stories chart O’Connor’s careful trajectory, her unique vision, and her genius. This interview is the second in a new ThoughtCast series which examines a specific piece of writing — be it a poem, play, novel, short story, work of non-fiction or scrap of papyrus — that’s had a significant influence on the interviewee, that’s shaped and moved them. Previously, Harvard literary critic Helen Vendler discussed an Emily Dickinson poem that’s stayed with her since she memorized it at the age of 13. Learn more about your ad choices.
